What list_agents does on Tenzro Ledger MCP
AI agents call list_agents to retrieve information from Tenzro Ledger MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why list_agents is rated Low
This tool retrieves information about registered agents without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only enumeration operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome would be information disclosure about network agents, which is low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_agents' and description 'List all registered agents on the network' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or execution of code.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs list_agents safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Tenzro Ledger MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_agents, this is the rule to start with:
list_agents is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Tenzro Ledger MCP, apply this rule, and every list_agents call is checked against it from then on.

List all registered agents on the network. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Tenzro Ledger MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Tenzro Ledger MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_agents: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Tenzro Ledger MCP. Nothing to install.
list_agents is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_agents rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_agents. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
list_agents is provided by the Tenzro Ledger MCP server (https://canton-mcp.tenzro.network/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
